English Choral Experience Cullercoats

2027St George's, Cullercoats, Cullercoats
Church at Cullercoats
For experienced amateur choral singers, focusing on specialist high-quality choral music. It will take place in the iconic grade I listed church of St. George’s, on the sea front at Cullercoats. The architect was John Loughborough Pearson, one of the great architectural geniuses of the 19th century, whose use of high brick vaulting gives acoustics for singing that are always outstanding.

We are thrilled to be able to return to sing in St George’s church in its wonderful position overlooking the sea and with its fine acoustic. It is also a beautiful part of the world north of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, close to Northumberland and with so much to explore locally including the lovely town of Tynemouth.

We are singing a quite challenging and very varied programme which we really hope will attract a group of good singers in all voice parts. It is essential that everyone comes having prepared their parts in advance. Let’s have an exciting weekend!

Catering:  Included in the course fee: teas/coffees and biscuits for break times and individually boxed lunches on Saturday and Sunday. These will include a sandwich, savoury, crisps, fruit and cake, plus a drink. Everyone’s dietary variations will be accommodated as usual.

We hope to find places where we can all eat together in the evenings, but it will be optional as it is not included in the course fee.
